Owning a CJ is for manly men, they allows you to do manly stuff like auto mechanics and welding and drinking beer. Manly men own CJs. Manly men do not drive hummers, they receive them.

There is a reason you don't see jeeps running around with hood scoops. You don't need it. Some people put vents in to help with heat, but thats about it. I wouldn't waste your time or your money. Although, I did see a cowl induction hood for an XJ on craigslist not long ago, that looked pretty BA.
